STAR TRIBUNE'S THREE STARS
1. Bo Horvat, Canucks: Shifty player all night and scored the go-ahead goal 1:33 into the third period.
2. Henrik Sedin, Canucks: Had one goal and one assist.
3. Jonas Brodin, Wild: By far the Wild's best defenseman and assisted on the first of Nino Niederreiter's two goals.
By the numbers
10 First-period goals for Niederreiter (fifth in the NHL).
4 Points in five games for minor-league call-up Jordan Schroeder (two assists).
18-5 Wild goal differential in the 14 first periods since Devan Dubnyk's arrival.
26-for-26 Wild's penalty kill (1-for-1 Monday) in nine games since the All-Star break.
